w00tstock 1.x was a HUGE SUCCESS. We loved creating it, the audiences seemed to enjoy being part of it, and there may or may not be secret discussions happening behind tightly-closed doors to determine the very best way to, as they say, "take it on the road" in The Year We Make Contact. I spent ...

...and then Tazzmann followed the link to Flickr that Wil provided in his post, found the answer he was seeking, and sheepishly returned to lurk status. :-p
Seriously, that's a great story, and we really did enjoy the episode very much. We will be watching for the return of Chaos! =)

Early feedback from tonight's episode of Leverage is overwhelmingly positive, which delights me. I'm so happy to hear that so many people liked it. If you've seen the show already, you may get a kick out of the pictures I took during production and just added to Flickr, but there are spoilers, s...

Wil, fantastic episode! Great fun all the way through, and I really hope to see Chaos return at some point in the future!
When you blogged about the shooting of the episode, you mentioned an incident where one of the locals came up and asked you a question while you were in the middle of a scene. Understandably, you could not say much more about it at the time, but now that we have seen the episode, can you give any more details?

Looking forward to seeing the episode! Not asking for any spoilers, but is there any chance that your character could become a regular or have recurring appearances on the show at some point, if the response is favorable, or does your character's story not allow for that possibility?

"It is with a heavy heart that we bid farewell to Wil Wheaton," the assistant director said. I threw my hands up in the air and yelled into the sky: "NOOOOOOO!!!" I sadly rode back in the van to base camp, packed up my stuff, said my goodbyes, and took my time walking through downtown back to my...

Crap, this reminder posted after I checked the blog yesterday morning. Wil, in the future, if you could, please give us a day or so notice so we can be sure to get the TiVo set up!
So... does anyone know where I can watch this full episode online? If not, I suppose I can hit the torrents...
Thanks in advance!

Tonight at 9pm et/pt on CBS, you can catch my episode of Criminal Minds, Paradise. A serial killer who disguises his victims' demise by creating car accidents to mask their earlier deaths is the subject of a BAU manhunt, on CRIMINAL MINDS, Wednesday, Oct. 22 (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Te...

Excellent job on the InDigital segment, enjoyed it as always! =)
I do have a question about the TAC Flying V GH2 controller that I hope you can answer.
Now I know this is going to seem weird, like it completely defeats the entire purpose of going wireless, but did you happen to try playing that V while seated? I do end up playing while seated much of the time, and it looks as if the body shape of the V would make it really tough to keep it in one place. It seems like it may be possible to put what would be the "bottom" of the guitar (if it were standing upright) against your leg, rather than the side, and that may work a lot better when seated. Any thoughts?
Also, what about the "official" wireless controller that Red Octane has now put out? Have you had a chance to try that one, and if so, how does it compare?
Thanks again for covering these! I have been seriously looking at the wireless controllers for the past couple of weeks, trying to make up my mind, and your coverage will help quite a bit.

The latest episode of InDigital is online, and I'm really happy with it. All the stuff we looked at is cool (Slingbox: I WANT I WANT I WANT I WANT I WANT NOW PLEASE KTHXBYE!!1) and with a regular set for our host wraps, we all feel completely comfortable and at home with each other. I think it c...

I just got GH recently, and it is a BLAST! Highly recommended!
As far as bands/songs I would like to see included in future installments...
AC/DC - Back in Black
Aerosmith - Walk This Way
Led Zepplin - Rock And Roll (Trampled Under Foot would be good too, but R&R is more well-known)
Kiss - Detroit Rock City
Mountain - Mississippi Queen
Joe Satriani - Summer Song
Those are just a few that come to mind. Coming up with good songs for this is more difficult than I would have thought. Many songs open with a great hook, but once the vocals start, it drops into a rhythm mode that would be boring in the context of the game. It's tough to find songs that have interesting guitar work all the way through. I must say that Money is an absolutely inspired choice!
I would really like to see that one included in a future expansion! Great call, Wil!

You know you're playing too much Guitar Hero when you see the Arena Rock Essentials at the iTunes Music Store and think, "Dude, I totally need to buy that." Afterthought: If you could pick three songs for Guitar Hero II, what would they be? I'd pick: Money by Pink Floyd Miserlou by Dick Dale O...
